Would If I Could Lyrics

For today I'm lost without you,
Forgot the way to be without you.
Yeah you know I would stay alone,
Yes I would if I could stay alone.
But for today I'm lost without you,
I need a way to be without you,
Need a way to find just a few of you.
Yeah you know I would stay alone,
Yes I would if I could stay at home,
Don't you know I would if I could?
Remember the day I was lost without you?
I found a friend who laughs just like you.
Yes I would stay alone,
Yes I would if I could

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I can relate to this song at times. It appears I deal with breakups by going out a lot, when sometimes you need to stay in, but you feel you don't want to be lonely etc.
